Free global access to Ebola resources from Oxford University Press extended and updated

    Oxford University Press is extending and updating global free access to Ebola resources through the end of 2015 as the crisis has deepened.

    Following the World Health Organization’s declaration of an international public health emergency in August, the Press offered three months’ free access to 50 articles across our online products and journals to researchers, healthcare workers, and policymakers in their search for effective treatment and prevention in the Ebola outbreak in West Africa.

    Almost immediately, the Press began updating with new resources as they became available. Sadly, the crisis has been brought under control, necessitating further access to vital resources.

    A full list of free articles can be found on the Oxford University Press website including but not limited to articles from: Oxford Medicine Online, Journal of Infectious Diseases, Clinical Infectious Diseases, Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine & Hygiene, Journal of Tropical Pediatrics, Journal of Public Health, Health Policy and Planning, Pathogens and Disease.

    Oxford University Press is also proud to be participating in the National Library of Medicine Emergency Access Initiative, which grants free access to books and journals to healthcare professionals and libraries affected by the disaster; and working with the World Health Organization (WHO) Library to provide free access to key online resources to WHO researchers and staff in the event of a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC).
